Don't miss the storks' nests located on the bell towers at the beginning and end of the bridge. Enjoy good coffee and a Spanish omelet just before crossing it on the right.

Long, made of stone, and with the memory of eternal passage. Here, time stretches arch by arch, and each crossing feels like a small ritual. You don't need to know anything about the past to feel it: simply roll (or walk) slowly and let the bridge do its work, which isn't to take you to the other side, but to leave you inside for a moment.

At the bridge

This small, stone-built sacred monument, located in a highly exposed location, is named after "Santo Toribio." The cross, which rises above a multi-tiered base and a round column shaft, is dedicated to this 5th-century saint. The custom of placing a stone – actually common at the "Cruz de Ferro" – seems to have become established here as well. Besides the religious aspect, a stop on this hill is also worthwhile for the view; Astorga is about five kilometers away.

Beautiful medieval village known above all for the charming bridge that leads to the village
